StorySeth be praised! Pharaoh Hetepsekhemwy has returned from the Eastern border victorious; the Canaanite army crushed by our chariots outside Giza. With the East now secure, Pharaoh looks afresh to the South. Many years of Kushite incursions have vastly reduced our holdings there. Even the great city of Abu has fallen to them. Pharaoh desires to take back what is his. Before we can mount an offensive, however, the Southern border must be strengthened. You must go to Behdet, and establish a forward command post there, and begin raising an army to supplement Pharaoh's forces. To show the Kushites we mean not to surrender, you should construct a mighty Obelisk in honour of Pharaoh's victories in Canaan. Be warned: while Behdet may seem secure, it is not beyond the reach of
a Kushite raiding party. If they get wind of our plans, you may have some
trouble. RulesCompletion Criteria:
**As reported by the Military Advisor. ***A trade partner is a city willing to trade with you (i.e. one with
an open trade route, or one for which the trade route is available but
has not yet been opened). Winning Criteria: 1. Speed (Fastest wins) Designer's NotesThere is an additional win criteria built into the map to prevent premature victory. This goal (1 Common Manor) cannot be met and should be ignored. Simply concentrate on meeting the winning criteria as quickly as possible. You will have to face at least two invasions. Failure to comply with requests will result in trade routes being irreversibly terminated. An increase in the price of Lettuce occurs every December as a reminder to make your annual save. Gauntlet was created by Caesar Alan and beta-tested by Aditya
and PurplePinkie. This contest will close at 11PM EST (US), on Sunday, April 25th. Please note the date!!!! This contest has ended.
